Delaware State Troopers of the Sussex County Governor's Task Force, in conjunction with the Delaware Probation and Parole Sussex Street Unit, arrested a Millsboro man on multiple drug charges on Thursday.

The incident occurred on Thursday, Feb. 22, at 8:50 a.m., when members of GTF and the probation and parole went to the 23000 block of Mission Road in Millsboro to arrest 26-year-old Tyree R. Oliver.
